    - Each liquid that was used in Part I has its own independent density. Density being the relationship between the mass and volume of a substance. In this portion of the lab we explored relative density, each liquid compared to the others. The corn syrup was the most dense, in comparison to the other liquids. Whereas the vegetable oil was the least dense compared to the other liquids. The liquids in between followed this same principle in their respective orders.…

    Cohesion Mini Lab

    In mini-lab 1, water was dropped onto the flat surface of a penny until the surface tension of the water was broken. 50 drops were able to be put onto the penny surface, with 51 drops of water being the point at which the hydrogen bonds of the water droplets that had created surface tension prior to drop number 51 failed to keep the surface tension, and the water spilt over the edges of the penny. This number of drops on the penny, 50, was possible because of cohesion. Cohesion created surface tension so the water molecules form hydrogen bonds of a greater strength with the water molecules around them. Cohesion is when a water molecule’s positive hydrogen end bonds with the negative oxygen end of another water…

    We would automatically assume that the longer the thumb is the higher the chances of it winning and because it has much more strength and mass. On the other hand, reflex, flexibility and strength is other factors also. A man with massive gaming experience or ball game experience may have higher winning possibilities than a man with less experience. Eventually, my hypothesis is the longer the thumb is the better chance he or she will win the thumb wresting game.…

    Hydrate Lab

    Hydrates are compound with a constant composition. Concepts of Law of Definite Proportions (hydrates remain in constant proportions) and Law of Conservation of Mass (this idea is used to determine the mass of water in the compound and, subsequently, the formula of the compound) are expressed in this experiment. In this experiment, the goal was to find the formula of copper sulfate pentahydrate by heating a sample of the blue compound in order to evaporate the water and receive the white-colored copper sulfate anhydrous. Using the mass of the original sample of copper sulfate pentahydrate subtracted by the new mass of the copper sulfate anhydrous, the mass of water lost is obtained and used to find the empirical formula. The expectation for…

    Hydrate Lab

    The lab in which we conducted last Tuesday was an analysis of a hydrate and what happens to it when it is heated. A hydrate is a crystalline compound which water molecules are chemically bound to it. In the lab, we were to analyze the difference in grams of the hydrate and the anhydrate. An anhydrate is the crystalline compound without the water molecules bound to it. During our lab, we were to heat up the crucible, the crucible with hydrate, and the crucible with an anhydrous and write down each weight, then repeat. Once we completed that task then we were to find the number of moles of water lost, the number of moles of anhydrous copper sulfate, percent comp of water in the hydrated copper sulfate, the mole ratio of moles of water and moles of anhydrous copper sulfate. Once this is all done, we found our percent error and compared it to the exact value.…

    Virtual Lab: Treating Water

    I enjoyed doing the virtual lab. I treat water as an occupation so I understood how and what to add to treat the water. If you have a low (acidic) pH then you should add sodium hydroxide. If you have total coliforms, you should chlorinate before and after treatment. Often, we test houses for total coliforms and e. coli. If the bacteria is positive, then we chlorinate the well. After we make sure all the chlorine is throughout the house, we let it sit for 24 hours to disinfect the pipes and the well. Then we flush the system so there is no more chlorine and resample the bacteria. If you have high nitrates or pesticides, then you should activate carbon and chlorinate at the end. If you have high metals, then you should add chlorine at…

    bio 101 lab report

    The object of this experiment is to determine how changing the size of the beak of a finch will affect the population as well as the growth rate of the finch’s beak. The reason for the experiment is to evaluate evolution and how it affects the finch’s population, and how natural selection is always present in life. In this experiment I will show that the finch will continue to evolve until its beak has reached the optimal size for sustaining life, when changing the beak size to a much larger size we will see that the finch will have no need for further evolution of its beak and that its population will become much more stable and consistent throughout the years.…
